Small Fused Project step-by-step instructions:

Step 1:  Preparation
· Clean Glass using Alcohol or Dish Washing Detergent. Then dry and set aside on a clean piece of paper or cardboard. 

- Using a tiny spec of Elmer’s Glue position each flower on White Circle Base. Let dry for at least 10 minutes or until flowers do not move.

- Stack your 1/2 circles on top of the Black Eyed Susan center  to make the cap handle and use a tiny spec of Elmer's glue to hold them together.  You can make the handle as high as desired.  Our project used 1 and a COE 96 black pebble on top.  Let dry for at least 10 minutes before moving.

· Clean & Prep Kiln: 
    · Apply Kiln Wash (Shelf Primer)
    · Cut Shelf Paper 1/2 inch larger than the circles
    · Place Kiln Shelf Supports, Shelf and Shelf Paper into Kiln

· Prep Molds: Apply a good coat of kiln wash to the mold, set aside to dry.

Step 2: Full Fuse 

Set both prepared glass circles into the kiln to fire. Tip: It is important to note that you need to make sure to touch all glass pieces by the outer edges to avoid finger oil or prints on the surface of the glass.

Place on top of the kiln shelf paper/shelf and full fuse.

NOTE: Place the Circle of Thin Fire paper over the top of each mold and then set the fused glass circle over each draping mold.  This will insure easy removal after the draping occurs.

Note: If you do not get a full slump, you can ramp up another 5 degrees but never hold more than 20 minutes.

- If you over fire and the glass starts to move, you may have to grind to get a more even look and then do a fire polish.

- You can make the bottom portion using a 4 inch circle for a deeper dish.

- If you find that you can not remove the glass from you mold (may occur when glass if over fired) place the mod back in the kiln and fire to 1,100 degrees for 2 minutes, slide mold off glass and leave it in kiln using long tweezers and gloves, then close lid and turn off allowing the kiln to cool to room temperature.  Do not fire to higher temperatures or glass will loose it's shape.
